Veracity, Plausibility, and Reputation

چکیده
The canonical IT security properties are geared towards infrastructure security. The task of an infrastructure security service is completed once data has been delivered to the application. When false data is submitted to the infrastructure, false data will be delivered securely. To secure an application, one thus may have to go beyond securing the infrastructure and in addition provide mechanisms for detecting false data. We propose veracity as a new security property relevant at the application level. We examine examples for veracity mechanisms from network management and conclude with a discussion of security in cyber-physical systems.

متن کاملReputation and Plausibility Verification based System for Providing Secure Vehicular Networks
In a Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET), node cooperation in packet forwarding is required for the network to function properly. However, since nodes in this networks usually have limited resources, some selfish nodes might intend not to forward packets to save resources for their own use. To discourage such behaviour, we propose a reputation and plausibility verification based system to detect s...
متن کاملSafety in Multi-Agent Systems: Reputation Based on Dossier
A multi-agent architecture possesses versatility when solving complex problems in various research fields.
